  • Title: Site-specific phosphorylation of beta-casein by proetin kinases from rabbit reticulocytes.
    Author: Tuazon PT, Traugh JA.
    Journal: J Biol Chem; 1978 Mar 25; 253(6):1746-8. PubMed ID: 632239.
    Abstract:
    The B variant of beta-casein was phosphorylated with [gamma-32P]ATP using four different protein kinases isolated from rabbit reticulocytes. Casein was maximally phosphorylated by the individual protein kinase activities and subjected to chymotrptic digestion. The peptides were separated by a two-dimensional peptide fingerprinting technique, and the phosphorylated peptides were identified by autoradiography, The two phosphorylated peptides obtained from the action of casein kinase I were shown to have different migration patterns from those obtained with casein kinase II. The cAMP-regulated protein kinases had the same substrate specificity with beta-casein B, and the two phosphorylated peptides obtained using these enzymes were distinct from those phosphorylated by the cAMP-independent enzymes. Thus, the different protein kinases can be identified by substrate specificity using beta-casein.
